Guntersville police are looking for the public's help to solve a string of armed robberies.

"During the last two months, there have been three armed robberies involving Guntersville businesses," Guntersville Police Chief Scott Walls said in a press release. "All of the robberies have taken place at night.

"Each robbery has involved two offenders, one white and one black. The offenders have been described to be in their late teens or early twenties. The offenders have used masks or covers to hide their faces," Walls said.

Police believe the same two men were involved in all three robberies. They are suspected of robbing the Conoco gas station at the corner of Blount Avenue and Alabama 227 on Oct. 12. They allegedly robbed East Lake Beverage on

Alabama 227 on Oct. 21.

The most recent robbery was Sunday at Domino's Pizza on Gunter Avenue. "These individuals are also suspects in similar cases in other jurisdictions," Walls said.

"Domino's Pizza is offering a cash reward of $1,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for these crimes."

Anyone with information about the suspects or the crimes is asked to call Guntersville police at (256) 571-7571.
